Description
We offer you this Countryside Duo, an ideal combination for lovers of bucolic settings. The rose bush produces purple, fragrant flowers from June to October. Paired with the majestic blue spikes of 'The Governor' lupins, it provides a harmony of colours and shapes to enliven the garden. The plants cover an area of about 1.5 m².
This Countryside Duo consists of:
- 1 Davis Austin Rose Bush, Rosa Munstead Wood: a bush with a rather wide and low habit, 80-90 cm tall, more suitable for borders. Its flowering is continuous from June to October, consisting of large, very double flowers in a beautiful intense and velvety purple. The strong scent emanating from the rose is also delightful, revealing warm and fruity notes of blueberry, blackberry, and plum.
- 3 lupins, Lupinus 'The Governor': these perennials stand up to 1 m tall, producing long floral spikes adorned with bicolour flowers, in a bright blue enhanced with white. Their palmate foliage is dark green, and their flowering extends from June to July, bringing a touch of height and freshness.
Plant this duo in spring or autumn, in a sunny bed or border. Maintain a spacing of 50 cm between each plant. Position the rose bush in the centre of the bed to slightly dominate, and plant the lupins around to add height and structure to the flowerbed.
Place this Countryside Duo in the background of a sunny flowerbed or in a large border. To enhance this duo, combine it with Nepeta 'Six Hills Giant', whose lavender blue softens the transition between the lupins and the rose bush. Add some Achillea 'Paprika' with red umbels, echoing the rose bush's flowers. Lastly, place a few clumps of perennial sage 'Caradonna' with purple spikes to enhance the harmony of tones. Plan for three plants of each variety for a perfect balance on an area of 3 m².

Planting and care
The duo of the rose 'Munstead Wood' and the lupins 'The Governor' thrives in sunny areas, where they benefit from at least six hours of direct sunlight per day. These plants appreciate rich, humus-bearing and well-drained soils, with a slight preference for slightly acidic to neutral soils. Regular, but moderate, watering is necessary, especially in dry periods, but make sure not to saturate the soil to avoid root rot problems. Mulching around the base of the plants helps retain moisture and limit weeds.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
